Re: FAU ice hockey

Wow. I seriously did not know we had Ice Hockey. Hmm. I wonder if the future convocation center can be made icy. It sure would get alot more use (from the community too) if it was an ice rink first that could be used as a basketball arena when necessary. Plus it would provide a dedicated flow of kids and parents who could buy stuff at the innovation village. Who knows, maybe by the time the kids grow up they would want to continue playing in their "home" rink.

That would be awesome! I'm a big fan of ice hockey being from up north I love ice skating. However being that FAU's hockey team is really a club the chances of them getting an ice rink on campus are somewhere between slim and none

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

And slim just left the room?

I know its not gonna happen, but it would be much more of a money maker than a building that sits empty when its not graduating people or having basketball games. Even if it was used for the occasional concert it would still be empty alot of the time. If it is an ice rink then it would be used by youth hockey, figure skaters, fau hockey, recreational skaters. Imagine if within a few blocks of each other were the ice rink, muvico, and boomers.

The hockey team is a club. The marketing department was not involved. Like most clubs, if they have a uniform it's because they petitioned SGA for it and went out to get it on their own.

They received those uniforms prior to the branding initiative. They probably don't have the money to get new ones.

And the Ice Hockey team use to do a good job of marketing themselves. and AlexFAU06… you seem like an involved and aware student….. if you haven't heard of them, then maybe they aren't doing their own marketing? I don't know….

Good hit, but the fight was inexcusable. I don't know if this is still a rule, but I think I recall when they were playing in 02-03 (when I was in SG), fights were not allowed and they were kicked off the team for fighting. Something about it not being an NCAA sport, so it would be like fighting on campus between two flag football teams.
